Default Where's the amp?

'07 Si. Where is the amp that feeds the so called 350Watt sound system?
Does anyone know?

Thanks,

It's in the dashboard/center console area. If you take off the shift **** and boot, and then pop off the piece of black plastic that the boot clipped into, you will be able to see it. It is directly underneath the stereo, but on the floor of the car.

are you talking about the little box in front of the srs control module? i thought that was the vsa computer. i'd assume the amp would be built into the stereo.

It's exactly where I said it is.

If you still don't believe me, there is a picture of it in this person's DIY, where he unplugs or removes it.

No..no you weren't. You were agreeing with Vladd. The amp isn't built into the stereo...it is a foot below it on the shift linkage/exhaust hump.

2008fiji is correct. Its under the center console. Ive installed some aftermarket ones and thats where you tap into speaker wires to bypass amp.
